Keep in mind, that's just the people famous enough to have English Wikipedia articles.

There's no way 1 in 10 people in Iceland are full-time professional authors publishing a book every year.

In the US, most authors I personally know write for fun and have a novel or few on something like wattpad and they've made exactly $0 on it.

Yep. My mom has written multiple published novels but she considers it something she does for fun more than anything.
